Rachael Pace, writing for Psych Alive.org, illuminates the destructive nature of comparing our current relationships to past ones or those of others. She eloquently argues that such comparisons not only rob us of joy but also pave the way for unfair expectations, bitterness, and a failure to appreciate the unique qualities of our partners. By embracing respect and focusing on the positives, Pace offers a roadmap to nurturing more fulfilling relationships.

Quotes to ponder:
"There is an old saying that goes 'Comparison is the thief of joy.' This phrase has been around for decades, and for good reason. The moment you start comparing your partner to another relationship is the moment you choose to be unhappy."
"Stop comparing your spouse to someone else and start looking at their positive qualities and loving them for who they are."
"Comparing your partner to someone else isn’t fair. You shouldn’t get serious with someone if your only intention is to change them."
